Do some hairstyle transformation on a basic braided bun by creating two thin plaits on both sides of your head. Gather your hair, including the thinly-braided sections, into a high ponytail. Weave the ends of the pony until the tip and secure with elastic. Twist the braid into a bun and hold the style with a couple of bobby pins.

This bouffant updo made Lara Stone a certified Brigitte Bardot doppelganger! The gap-toothed stunner’s updo features longer side fringe aside from the main attraction: colossal crown. You can add a bun under that poof to maximize the volume. See how here!

Ordinary buns can a bore, we know. That’s why from time to time a tweaked version is necessary such as Ester Heesch’s multi-spiraled version.
Score the ‘do by creating a sleek base with mousse. Part hair to one side, and then do a low-slung ponytail. Apply some gel at the ends to make them more polished. Do a few sections (1/2 inch) of the loose end of the pony and twist each tightly until they bend naturally. Pin each to the base of the ponytail making sure that no stray hairs are seen. Hairspray’s optional.

Well, here’s a funky way to modernize a retro updo! Add a few chunks of temporary blue streaks to your hairstyle using Bumble and Bumble’s Spraychalk in Cobalt. It dries quickly and is not messy. Just create a few sections (1” thick) and spray away! Tease the hair at the crown then loosely twist it vertically and secure with pins. Lift the hair at the top some more for a bigger poof.

There are days when we just don’t want any hair to touch our face, right ladies? But, we need something more sophisticated than just plain ‘ol ponytail. Behold Kasia Struss’ double plaits! Start the no-sweat hairstyle by parting your hair in the middle and French braiding each side starting at the front. Then, join the two plaits at the back and twist them into a bun.

This is another braided hairstyle that we highly recommend for formal events and proms! Part hair to one side then separate the front section of the hair from the rest of your mane. Apply gel to the front section and do finger waves by combing the strands thoroughly. Next, shape the first wave by putting a finger at the end of a 3” horizontal section of the front part. Push the hair forward on top of the finger towards the forehead using a fine-toothed comb then remove your finger and clip that part. Do two more waves using the same technique.
Braid the back section until the tip then tie with elastic. Roll the ends inward, towards the nape, then pin. Remove the clips of your marcel waves. Sweep it gently over your ear then clip it on the side of the braid then tuck and clip the end under the plait for a clean finish. Give yourself a pat on the back! You deserve it!

The 80’s wet look hairstyle is given a new life once again this year! The drenched trend dominated much of the 2013 runway shows. The sleek and wet style is shunned (thank goodness) and replaced with a messy and wet ‘do as seen on Bette Franke. Use a texturizing cream instead of gel to achieve the desired effect. The former is lightweight, soft and touchable.

Before Coco Rocha chopped off her gorgeous mane into a punk pixie, she played around with various hairstyles that have proven to be swoon-worthy. We love her in this classic ballerina bun. It’s sleek all around, but the bun itself is slightly loose. This is a highly versatile hairstyle that is appropriate for formal occasions and even on normal bad hair days.

Let’s get frizzy! Yes, we’re giving you a green light to embrace and even deliberately make your locks go amock! Use a texturizing spray before tousling your hair and creating three sections. Braid each section loosely and secure with elastic. Intertwine the braids into an uneven pattern. Secure with pins as you go. Using the end of a rat tail comb, loosen the braids and pull out a few more strands to make them look extra messy.

Embrace the gamine revolution by donning an exaggerated version of Elvis Presley’s pompadour. Actually, a faux version of the King of Rock and Roll’s hairstyle.
How-to: Apply mousse all over damp hair then rough-dry using a blow dryer. Create tight curls using hot rollers. Keep the rollers in until it has completely cooled (about 30 minutes). You need to call a friend for the second part. Flip your hair and ask a friend to braid your hair from the nape until the crown. Leave the ends loose. Rough up the ends a little and tease it from the roots for a good volume. Shape the curls slightly towards the middle and set the style with hairspray. That’s it! Thank you, thank you very much.
